2009 is upon us...

I have a feeling that even though the economy and things just suck right now that this year will be a good one! I have been thinking alot of what I want and what do I resolute for 2009.
Lately I have been the subject. My whole life has taken such twists and turns that I never in a million years thought would happen. If you had of told me 20 years ago that I was gonna be a mom to 3 I would have laughed your face off! I was never one to really want children and when I found myself pregnant with Brandon at 25 I was quite shocked.... what a huge change... I had Jack at 32 and now that Brandon is starting teendom I really am thinking....
Where did I go?
I read this really wikked beauty blog by a girl named DoeDeere and she actually reminds me alot of Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the city.... Her site is DoeDeere and do check it out... She is smart and witty and has this awesomeness about her that keeps you reading! She is just fantastic with a makeup brush in her hand and I am always so intrigued by her ideas and shoots.... I mention her because at one point in life she was what I aspired to be.....
I was always a beauty and fashion freak and I can still remember sneaking into my mom's makeup and playing for hours with different looks and types of makeup at a very early age... That carried on through my teens and twenties but after the babes I just left it alone....
So I think my resolution this year is going to be to concentrate more on bringing my old self back and feeling good about me.... I cant even remember the last time I went shopping for myself ...just sitting and playing with makeup... going out with friends for a few cocktails... Now its kids clothes, washing my face and make sure I remember to actually brush my hair ( on a side not, I want to wear it down too more this year...always in the dreaded ponytail) and I sit at home night after night living my dreams through Carrie Bradshaw....LOL
I dont want anyone to think I am not happy and fulfilled cause damn I love my family and life but I just miss the little parts of me that meant so much when I was free....
Soooo what are your thoughts for the coming year....
Until next time...
Hugs and Smiles
